One Day for UWL has ended but you can still make an impact for UWL - click here!
International Education & Engagement

Who we are: 

International Education & Engagement (IEE) is proud to support 80+ international students and nearly 300 education abroad/away students this last year.  Our students' study and call home to 30+ countries and even a few US States (national student exchange program).  Our staff of 6 works hard to provide quality experience and support to all of our students at UWL and away.    

Your impact:  Funding helps support campus international programs, monthly student care packages, international adapters for all students, IEE resource center needs, and support of international partnerships.

Past funding from donors helped support a large world map for our resource center that highlights all the countries our students come from and travel to each semester. 


"Your support helped to purchase a large world map in IEE.  It is fun to see my home country represented on it."
- Afonso, junior international student from Brazil, Psychology & Philosophy Major


"Thank you for helping to support IEE's efforts to develop and strengthen our international partnerships. With your support, we are able to welcome new international partners to La Crosse community and university, support faculty/staff traveling to program sites, develop campus international programming and initiatives to support all students (domestic & international)." - Karolyn Bald, Director of IEE & UWL Study Abroad Alum 1996    


Your gift supports:  International partnership development opportunities, create financial accessibility by reducing program costs, support towards campus international programming events and recruitment efforts by other UWL faculty, staff & alumni.
